The largest rooms on record
Nothing in Redwood City is classified as a convention or exhibition centre, so the largest rooms here are arenas, theatres and function spaces. The ceiling is 1,400 seats, at Fox Theatre.
Capacities are the figure the venue or an encyclopaedia entry published. They are usually the seated maximum, and the same room in banquet or reception layout can differ by half. Confirm the layout you want before you plan around a number.
Travel, time zone and arrival
San Francisco International Airport (SFO) is 19 km (12 mi) out — a normal airport transfer, worth an hour in the run of show on the first morning.
Local time is Los Angeles time (America/Los_Angeles) — set every session time in the app to that zone and let attendees' phones do the conversion.
Belmont, Palo Alto and San Mateo are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Redwood City has nothing free on your dates.

The local constraints
No exhibition hall on record
Nothing in the Redwood City dataset is classified as a convention or exhibition centre, so a trade floor needs either an arena floor, a fairground, or a nearby city. Check the arena listings above before you promise exhibitors a booth plan.
The city is smaller than the market
82,982 people live in Redwood City itself, but about 4.6 million live in the wider San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA. Your local audience is far bigger than the city line suggests, and so is the commute your day-rate attendees will make.

By event type
The top of the range here is 1,400 seats, which comfortably covers an association annual meeting, a regional summit or a mid-sized user conference.
- multi-track conferences
A 1,400-seat room carries a plenary with breakouts running alongside it.
- association annual meetings
An association meeting needs one big room, several small ones and a hotel block, which is the combination Redwood City is set up for.
- award ceremonies
1 fixed-seat house gives you a stage, lighting and sightlines without building any of it.
- training days and workshops
1 purpose-built function space is the easiest kind of room to run a workshop in — the power and the load-in already assume it.
